We here at TCAF are delighted to announce the details of our first-ever exhibition of Canadian comics culture abroad, centering around the Kaigai Manga Festa in Tokyo, Japan, November 18th. This trip will encompass many diverse facets of Canadian comics, featuring artists from across Canada, exhibitions, gallery shows, and installation art, as well as numerous sales opportunities for Canadian books and graphic novels. In short, we’re expecting a tremendous success for our first internaitional visit, and we invite anyone who’s able to come and be a part of it.
